No on Prop 8

Gay marriage is the civil rights issue of our time. For those who have strong religious beliefs and believe homosexuality is wrong are entitled to those beliefs. However, the bible also says that everyone should love each other and God will judge us, we should not judge others.
American history is deeply rooted in discrimination and it is on the backs of the enslaved that this country has thrived. But we can change this.

For weeks people have been passionately protesting for and against Prop 8 on the street corners surrounding my house. One sign read, "We Hate Fags!" while parents have their children out in droves holding signs and shouting for passers-by to vote yes on 8. It is devastating to watch children being dragged into this.

If you're in favor of legislative hate, then vote yes on Prop 8. If you believe in love, equality, progress and the direction that this country is going in - we're gonna have our first black president tomorrow - then vote No on Prop 8.
You know what I'd like to see amended by the FCC? Restrictions to greatly lower the number of political ads that can air with guidelines each ad must follow, mandating explanations of wtf each proposition means IN LAYMAN'S TERMS. With a new study revealing that smart people are more likely to vote, I know I must not be the only person who's not the least bit surprised by these findings.

Poltitical ads are deceptive, misleading, manipulative and would leave any Mensa member confused. You're told to vote for and against something within the span of two minutes, with both sides presenting its case persuasively. If they dumb things down, and don't beat us over the head with ads, I know more people would vote.
Prop 8 is reportedly in a dead heat. Every vote counts. In summary, support love, not hate!!

There are similar same sex marriage bans in other states. I apologize to those who don't reside in California. But for those who do, here's two great links that explain the California propositions a little better. I know I'm not posting a random story today. I think the election takes precedence.
